Kukla's Korner Hockey

Eric at Off Wing Opinion has a great and much needed post that every hockey blogger should read.

Earlier this year, Washington Capitals owner Ted Leonsis asked me to create a set of guidelines for the team to issue press credentials to bloggers. After a few days of knocking it around with Ted and Caps Media Relations Director Kurt Kehl, we were able to come up with a finished product. I'm publishing it here in hopes that both franchises and individual bloggers can use it as the basis for creating an ongoing relationship.

Hopefully, other teams that have not even bothered to respond to blogger requests, will use this as an example and establish their own guidlines.
